I was contacted by the Vermont Council on Rural Development who wants to use one of my paintings on their brochure for the Newport Community Visit program. Margaret, the office and communications officer of Vermont Council on Rural Development, stated that my painting stood out as a beautiful representation of a part of Newport.
I was honored was pleased to offer the use of my image for flyer they are creating even though they were offering modest compensation for the rights to use the image. They are a neutral non-profit organization dedicated to the support of the locally-defined progress of Vermont’s rural communities. They are bringing our Community Visit process to Newport over the next 3 months.
The painting is one I did of Newport from Brownington lookout. The original is a 20 x 16 watercolor which is available.
